Adding front camera to 270 surround view 2014 F11 535D
My 2014 F11 535 Msport, amongst other features, has: Parking assist, Lane change, KAFAS camera for speed limit display and High beam assist, ACC, Driver assist plus, HUD, Satnav-pro and 270 surround view.
I would like to add a front camera to give a total 360 surround view.The front is for seeing the kerb (or other low obstruction) when you are parking head on to the kerb. There are 5 cameras for the operation of 270 surround view, (one in rear, one under each mirror (top view) and one in each wing), the rear camera has its own control module which links to a ECU and there is a camera module for the 270 view which seems to have 5 input connections . I am not sure if the rear camera module takes up the fith input or would the module have connections ready for a sixth (front) camera which would install in the left hand front grill? I have looked on REAL OEM and the main camera module seems to only have 5 connections for cameras and one for passing out the data. Has anyone tried to add an OEM front camera? |

Will that give you a full 360 degree view like on the F15 X5s?

I've been doing some pretty deep research on this and nothing seems to do it really. The only thing that seems to integrate at all is the bimmertech retrofit with a Multimedia Interface box that makes it show nicely on the iDrive screen when you hold the Menu button down for 3 seconds. It does NOT completely the 360deg. view in Parking Assist though.

There is no OEM Front Camera, so there is no easy way to be integrated and covert 270 to 360! Actually the 270 view is more than 270 but anyway - it is done only by 3 cameras. The front bumper cameras are only for the Side View option - separate extra.
